The Avengers should be for the heavyweights; the Defenders and the Champions, etc. are for the second-stringers. /* ---------- */ Before Issue #125, the Defenders included the Hulk, Dr. Strange, Submariner, and the Silver Surfer - HARDLY second-stringers. Besides, I rather like variety in my groups. Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, and the Wasp (the Wasp?) are a good lineup, but they need the occasional Hawkeye or Tigra. The interaction between characters is what makes the book for me, not raw power or character popularity. Then again, I haven't read the JLA in more than a decade, so what do I know? :-) Carl ..!ctvax!uokvax!lmaher
